Care for The Children

Children feel the debility of the changing
seasons, even more than adults, and they be-
come cross, peevish, and uncomfortable.
The blood should be cleansed and the system
invigorated by the use OF Hoods Sarsaparilla.
Last Spring my two children were vacci-
mated. Soon after, they broke all out with run
ming sores, so dreadful thought should lose
them. Hoods Sarsaparilla cured them COM

IN CONCLUSION.

Conservatives will choose not to change.
while even those who love change, will
at times as a change, choose outfits in
which no change appears. Thus there
will be room for the plain as indeed is al
ways the case, and for the class who study
economy, it is advisable to select something
standard, like black silk or cashmere, or if
some fancies of the day be thought prefer
able, let them not be TOO numerous. One
or two costumes, if made to do good service
in their day and generation can censcien-
tiously be discarded when their day is past
and give way the more readily to some
fresher thought. Duty commands the
chronieler of fashion to write of what is
notable and novel, but one must remember
that there is always large background of
things not written but whose existence
must be taken for granted. They are worn
from season to season; as suitable for win
ter as for summer and correspondingly safe
investments. Yet even of these, do not
have too large supplies. Styles in making
change, if not material, and this making
over" business is not unfrequently sorry
one. RosALIND MAY.

Tobacco in France.

The growing virtue of the French in
the matter OF tobacco smoking bids
fair to create yet another difficulty in
the arduous task OF balancing the
budget of the republic. 1t appears
that the tax on this pleasant vice pro-
duced last year 100000 francs less
than in the year 1885. The theory
has been preached that as the men
got on in life they smoke less, for the
reason that they gradually become so
saturated with nicotine that they can
not hold any more. This would not,
however, explain the dim1nution, see
ing that the place of old men is taken
by the rising generation. So the theo-
ry is pushed still further, and it is ar
gued that as the process of absorption
OF nicotine goes on from generation to
generation the sons Of smokers are
not able to consume so much tobacco
as the children of non-smokers Odd
ly enough, the diminution of consump-
ton is only in smoking tobacco, while
as much snuff is sold as formerly. The
enormous sum of 8O,OOO,OOO francs
is annually spent in snuff. Where the
snuff takers live is an enigma. In
Paris, at all events, the habit, if one
may Judge from ones own experience,
is unknown.

Looking After His Morals.

The vigilance of the dog in guarding
the temporal interests of man has Of
ten been a subject of praise, but one
can scarcely find words in which to
commend q canine friend who makes
himself also the keeper of his masters
conscience. The Popular Science
Monthly, in presenting certain views
upon the Crazy Mountains, thus ideal.
ICES the sheep-dogs of the region:
They deserve more than a passing
mention. Their intelligence and quick
apprehension of what is required OF
them, and faithful performance OF
duty, are wonderful. Without them
the working force for sheep would re-
quire to be more than doubled. They
appreciate kind treatment, and take
to heart scolding and abuse.
A foreman OF sheep-ranch once
said that in sending out q new man,
he assigned to him an old dog, think
ing that if the man did not know his
duty, the dog did.
He charged the would.be herder to
be kind to the dog, saying, HE will
not stay with you ifyou are not"
In two days the dog was at home
again. The foreman visited the man,
taking another dog, and said to him.
"You were cross to the old dog, and
/ told you he wouldn't stand it."
81 wasn't cross to the dog" re-
turned the herder; "but, c)nfound
him, he wouldn't even let me swear at
the sheep!'

A Typical California Town.
From a Red Bluffs lCa1.) Letter.

From Red Bluffs (Cal.) Letter.
The town is In the heart OF by far
the vastest wheat field on earth. You
see miles and miles of wheat bags
piled up in little mountains all the
way to San Francisco by the track
waiting for the freight cars. And yet
the town does not seem to be overly
prosperous. Perhaps l ought to re-
peat that it is only one OF about a
thousand like towns that have set
OUT to "grow up with the country,
with very Indifferent success. Red
Bluffs has two many petty rivals, per.
haps. And perhaps they are all mod
eled too much after the same mlsera-
bly, provincial pattern. In these Cali
fornia towns YOU hear the click-clack
of the billiard balls as you enter them.
You see some red-faced barkeeper IN
shirt-sleeves busting about In every
one of the dozen or so SALOONS" Two
or three "dead beats" leaning over
each one of the many billiard tables,
a few old poisoned noses pOklng
a,hout the corners looking out for
sorne one to treat, dozen or SO OF
loafers sitting cooked back on broken
chairs before the doors of the $50
looms" a lot of big, lazy boys leaning
against posts or shade trees, staring
at the strangers and smoking cigar
cites or chewing tobacco, and that is
about all. These pretty little Call
fornia towns, for which God has done
so much and man 80 little, are all
alike, weak, worthless, helpless. They
all have the leprosy, the deadly, damn
ing leprosy of laziness in every tone
and fibre of them.

From Boston,

Oze of the most eminent physicians in
Boston gives his opinion that the extent OF
the Moxie Nerve Food plant, now so rapid
ly substituting stimulants and recovering
the nervous women, will probably become
one of the great trad staples OF the country,
because it's place cannot be filled. Most OF
the dealers so consider it now, and even the
grocers deliver it to their customers as they
do eatables. When we consider it has been
on the market but fourteen months, and
thatit can now befound in almost any part
OF the country, and that the company are
selling it at the rate OF 1900, 900 bottles
per year. it must have most marvellous
power over the people.
